Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public debate in Nigeria on the country s progress since its return to democracy in 1999 has been dominated by two seemingly opposite themes. The first theme is the strong growth performance of the non-oil economy. This success has been marked by sharp increases in agriculture, trade, and construction and by the emergence of new industries in the financial, telecommunications, and entertainment sectors, supported by sound macroeconomic policies and structural reforms. The second, opposing theme is the seeming failure of Nigeria s much improved economic performance to reduce unemployment, especially among the young. Rising levels of unemployment have increased militancy among the young and impacted negatively on public order. 'Putting Nigeria to Work: A Strategy for Employment and Growth' looks at the ways in which Nigeria s improved economic performance has impacted the labor market. A number of relevant factors are carefully examined and analyzed, including industrial policy and the investment environment, the effects of restrictive trade policies on growth, and the ability of the technical and vocational education system to address the country s skills gap. The book proposes a strategy that will allow Nigeria to increase the availability of quality jobs, reduce rising youth unemployment, and sustain and further accelerate the country s economic performance and growth. At the core of this strategy are targeted interventions aimed at removing binding constraints to growth in sectors of the economy that are already growing fast, but have the potential to grow faster and have significant employment-creating potential.

Book excerpt: In Nigeria, achieving a substantial reduction in youth unemployment and poverty is an attainable goal if the government steps up to the challenge and creates a conducive environment for small businesses to prosper. This book utilizes a convergent mixed-methods design to explore how entrepreneurship can be leveraged to address the pressing issues of youth unemployment and poverty in Nigeria. The study employs the theory of planned behavior as its theoretical framework, which posits that young people's inclination towards entrepreneurship depends on their attitude towards it, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral controls.To examine the factors influencing the entrepreneurial intentions of young Nigerians, the research collected quantitative data from 447 graduating students at a federal university in Southern Nigeria. The study employed the structural equation modeling partial least squares (SEM-PLS) procedure to analyze the data and test hypotheses.The findings reveal a significant relationship between the attitude towards entrepreneurship and the entrepreneurial intentions of Nigerian students (ß=0.632, t=6.298, p

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the government, its agencies, and other key stakeholders are aware of the relevance of entrepreneurship in enhancing and sustaining national growth and development through more job creation, and the strengthening of the nation's industrial base, they have failed to give it the deserved attention at tertiary education level. This paper examines the significant role played by creative self-development through effective technical entrepreneurship education at the Nigerian tertiary education level towards tackling the deteriorating problem of unemployment among Nigerian graduates. Being a descriptive study, close-ended questionnaires based on 5-point Likert scale were distributed to a total of 300 respondents comprising undergraduates, lecturing staff, personnel managers, and entrepreneurs from Anambra and Lagos State, and the data generated was tested using the multiple regression techniques (a nonparametric statistical tool). The results showed that although creative selfdevelopment programs upheld by some prominent universities in Nigeria as part of their academic requirements for students, have really played a vital role in reducing the ever-increasing challenges of unemployment among their graduates, a lot of Nigerian graduates still remain unemployable because they have failed to translate their wealth of knowledge acquired into skills required by the labor market for their employment. Based on this fact, it is recommended that the government and all key players in the Nigerian tertiary education system should restructure and restrategize the entrepreneurship education programs of Nigerian universities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2020 in the subject Economy - Environment economics, University of Ibadan (Economics), course: Accounting, language: English, abstract: This study was carried out to examine the causes of unemployment in Nigeria and its effects on the economy of the country. Data were sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria, Statistical Bulletin (2017), National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), Internet, CIA site, Index Mundi and past studies. The study covered period of 18 years, 1999 to 2017. EViews version 7 was used to analyze the data gathered, while Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method was adopted. This study discovered that the unemployment in Nigeria is the major contribution to the poverty level in the country. Money supply and credit to private sector were recognized to have significant effect on unemployment level in the economy. It is also discovered that gross domestic product and unemployment rate in Nigeria has positive relationship which is an indication that growth in GDP does not amount to overall development in Nigeria. This study recommends that government should make credit available to private sector, increase money in circulation and try to reduce external debt which drain away the wealth of the nation through interest payments to reduce poverty rate in Nigeria.

This book was released on 2016-04-19 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Youth employment is not an entirely new topic for research and policy. Recent estimates from the International Labour Organisation (ILO) (2013a) suggest that high and rising unemployment rates among youth remain a key challenge to global development, especially in the developing world. This is particularly important in sub-Saharan Africa where about 85 percent of youth (defined by the ILO as all those between the ages of 15 and 24 years) are poor, 70 percent live in rural areas where agriculture is the main source for their income and subsistence, and 11 million youth are expected to enter the labor market every year for the next decade (World Bank 2014). These characteristics of youth in sub-Saharan Africa justify the centrality of the nexus between youth employment and agriculture in formulating development policy on the continent. At the same time, youth unemployment is currently one of the issues receiving attention at the top of the global development agenda.

Book excerpt: At the start of each decade the World Development Report focuses on poverty reduction. The World Development Report, now in its twenty-third edition, proposes an empowerment-security-opportunity framework of action to reduce poverty in the first decades of the twenty-first century. It views poverty as a multidimensional phenonmenon arising out of complex interactions between assets, markets, and institutions. This Report shows how the experience of poverty reduction in the last fifteen years has been remarkably diverse and how this experience has provided useful lessons as well as warnings against simplistic universal policies and interventions. It shows how current global trends present extraordinary opportunities for poverty reduction but also cause extraordinary risks, including growing inequality, marginalization, and social explosions. The World Development Report 2000/2001 explores the challenge of managing these risks in order to make the most of the opportunities for poverty reduction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa welcomes business investment and offers some of the world's highest returns and impacts Africa has tremendous economic potential and offers rewarding opportunities for global businesses looking for new markets and long-term investments with favorable returns. Africa has been one of the world's fastest-growing regions over the past decade, and by 2030 will be home to nearly 1.7 billion people and an estimated $6.7 trillion worth of consumer and business spending. Increased political stability in recent years and improving regional integration are making market access easier, and business expansion will generate jobs for women and youth, who represent the vast majority of the population. Current economic growth and poverty-alleviation efforts mean that more than 43 percent of the continent's people will reach middle- or upper-class status by 2030. Unlocking Africa's Business Potential examines business opportunities in the eight sectors with the highest potential returns on private investment—the same sectors that will foster economic growth and diversification, job creation, and improved general welfare. These sectors include: consumer markets, agriculture and agriprocessing, information and communication technology, manufacturing, oil and gas, tourism, banking, and infrastructure and construction. The book's analysis of these sectors is based on case studies that identify specific opportunities for investment and growth, along with long-term market projections to inform decision-making. The book identifies potential risks to business and offers mitigation strategies. It also provides policymakers with solutions to attract new business investments, including how to remove barriers to business and accelerate development of the private sector.
